Midfielders: Emre Can, Jude Bellingham, Raphael Guerreiro

Axel Witsel and Mahmoud Dahoud are both sidelined, leaving Emre Can as the only defensive midfielder in the Borussia Dortmund squad. Can is primarily a midfielder, but he hasn’t played in the middle of the park since his substitute appearance against Union Berlin in February.

Jude Bellingham will start in the number eight role and will be crucial to Borussia Dortmund’s hopes of getting the three points. The England international caused Bayern all sorts of problems in the reverse fixture.

Raphael Guerreiro could start in midfield due to the lack of other options available to Marco Rose. We could also see a back three, with Guerreiro playing at left wing-back. It will all likely depend on the fitness of Dan-Axel Zagadou and Marius Wolf.
